Chicago has many romantic things to do.
Chicago is the largest midwestern city in the United States. Because of its size, Chicago offers both visitors and locals a variety of activities. If you are looking for something romantic to do in the city of Chicago, you have many options located from the North side, to downtown and the West Loop.
Day at the Museums
Spending a day with your partner in an intellectually stimulating environment can be extremely romantic. Chicago has many renowned and wonderful museums. Visit the Art Institute of Chicago to view some of the world's greatest paintings and sculptures. In 2009, the new modern wing of the Art Institute opened. On Thursdays evenings, the Institute offers free admission to the public. Although the Field Museum and the Adler Planetarium are a few miles walk away from the Art Institute, the walk along the shores of Lake Michigan can be very romantic in warmer months.

See a Play or Musical
Chicago's theater district is located in downtown Chicago and offers many Broadway plays and musicals. A romantic option for couples can be to partake in some culture and see many different award-winning shows. Chicago was home to famous shows like Wicked and Jersey Boys for extended periods of time. You will have to plan this romantic evening in advance, however, as many of these shows can sell out on weekend nights.
